A big number of illegal migrants were transferred to the shelter centers of the Tripoli-based Illegal Immigration Fight Center (IIFC) after being busted in Gargaresh district in the capital, the Special Deterrent Force (SDF) declared on Sunday. “After storming into the drugs and alcohol dens in Gargaresh, our forces nabbed a number of African illegal migrants.” The SDF said on Facebook, adding that it kept some of the migrants at its headquarters as they are suspected to be part of organized gangs that work in making and selling liquor.
